The Places We Know
I went searching through the pieces
That had washed up on the sand
With a chill wind blowing at my back
And time at my command
And I wondered at the broken cargo
Lying at my feet
And I wondered what remained there stolen
By the rolling sea
And I'll take your hand
We'll go to all the places we know
And feel whole again
And the messengers flew overhead
They flew on brittle wings
The cries they sound for miles around
To no one listening
So I wrapped this blanket around me
And I headed for the quay
Where sails are full and courses true
And love's still a mystery
And I'll take your hand
We'll go to all the places we know
And feel whole again
Silent stranded
Trapped by the tide
If you see me I have survived
And I'll take your hand
We'll go to all the places we know
And feel whole again
Well you know I may be restless
Sometimes I may be cold
But you know that there are some things
That put restless in your soul
And I love your gentle innocence
Your strong simplicity
And I hate the greed, the anguish
They're pushing right at me
And I'll take your hand
We'll to to all the places we know
And feel whole again
That had washed up on the sand
With a chill wind blowing at my back
And time at my command
And I wondered at the broken cargo
Lying at my feet
And I wondered what remained there stolen
By the rolling sea
And I'll take your hand
We'll go to all the places we know
And feel whole again
And the messengers flew overhead
They flew on brittle wings
The cries they sound for miles around
To no one listening
So I wrapped this blanket around me
And I headed for the quay
Where sails are full and courses true
And love's still a mystery
And I'll take your hand
We'll go to all the places we know
And feel whole again
Silent stranded
Trapped by the tide
If you see me I have survived
And I'll take your hand
We'll go to all the places we know
And feel whole again
Well you know I may be restless
Sometimes I may be cold
But you know that there are some things
That put restless in your soul
And I love your gentle innocence
Your strong simplicity
And I hate the greed, the anguish
They're pushing right at me
And I'll take your hand
We'll to to all the places we know
And feel whole again
